Can't open local files.
I cannot open any local files or folders in Firefox.
I have tried opening the following file types in Firefox: htm, html, txt, pdf, xpi.
I have tried opening files in the following ways: -Drag drop onto Firefox from windows explorer -Right click file in windows explorer and open with Firefox -Double click files that would be opened in Firefox by default -"Open file" from Firefox file menu
I have experienced this problem in Firefox 3.x and Firefox 4.0. When I try to open a file in Firefox it creates a new tab with the file's path in the address bar but the file does not open.
Any idea what could be going wrong?
thanks Rob

You may have an extension (NoScript?) that blocks access to local files.
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

That worked! Turns out IE Tab 2 was causing the issue.
Thanks
